NFS backup option produces unusable bakcup isos

[Tadej Janež]

Using CentOS 4.4 on x86_64 hardware and self-compiled mindi and mondo packages version 2.0.9-2:

Backup to Hard disk images produces "normal" backup isos (command:

mondoarchive -O -i -d /mnt/nfsbackup -p isotest-20060929 -N -I "/etc" -F -s 700m

)

Backup to Nfs disk produces unusable backup isos (command:

mondoarchive -O -n 192.168.44.21:/backup/websrv -d / -p nfstest-20060929 -N -I "/etc" -F -s 700m

If you burn and boot isos created with Nfs method, the boot menu lacks 'interactive', 'nuke', 'verify' and 'expert' boot descriptions and only the 'expert' boot option is recognised. Furthermore, booting to expert mode, the system is unusable, because every command (except the ones from busybox) returns the 'command not found error'. Example:

# mondorestore
/bin/sh: mondorestore: not found
# which mondorestore
/usr/bin/mondorestore
# sh /usr/bin/mondorestore
/usr/bin/mondorestore: /usr/bin/mondorestore: 1: Syntax error: ")" expected

I don't know how to get any log file out of that machine, because mount and all other commands aren't found.
